This week needs to slow way down. Around 4:00 yesterday afternoon, things went in to Fast Forward, and they haven’t slowed down. I have about eleventy billion things to do before this now-massive baby shower I’m throwing on Saturday (side note: yeah, I volunteered for this, I know, but there’s something a little wrong with the infertile one throwing the shower…..and don’t go getting all offended if you’re planning on coming. I’m not bitter, it’s just ironic). I have to clean the house, finalize the menu (nothing like waiting till the last minute), schedule pest control, and in between all of this, I’m trying to schedule a rather important conference call for Friday. Plus, I have to get Kevin all the way on board with helping with C’s garage sale (and we have stuff to sell, too. It’s so very not getting priced). I don’t mind the pace. In fact, I wish it would keep up, because that means vacation gets here quicker.
Even though I’m not working, I still have a full-time job (other than keeping up with the house). Let’s just say that paperwork is my friend these days. This is an exciting time for us, but it’s frustrating, too. And now I sound like Complainy Complainerton. I’m not complaining. I’M NOT. I’m just a little overwhelmed today, that’s all. I know that there are people out there that are way more stressed out than me. I know that I’m the luckiest girl in the world when it comes to friends and family. I’ve found out over the last few weeks just how big my support network is. So….bring on the fast forward, baby. I’m ready for ya.
